What is the value of Yf for a lap winding with a 4-pole, 12-slot armature with two coil sides/slot? (Assume single-turns coils – progressive winding)(a) 3(b) 5(c) 7(d) 9I have been asked this question during an online interview.My question is taken from Lap Winding topic in portion Armature Windings of DC Machines

Answer»

The correct choice is (b) 5

Explanation: Coil span is defined as a ratio of NUMBER of slots in the armature winding which are also equal to the number of commutator segments to the number of poles. Here, Slots in the armature winding= 12, Number of poles= 4.

YCS= 12/4= 3.

Yb = 2YCS +1= 7

Yf =Yb – 2= 7-2= 5.
